Why wear a ribbon?

"I thought that this would be very symbolic to wear. I am in the beginning stage..." (thisiswhy1)

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Hi Everyone,

I received an email regarding a teleconference with CCFA that is free. I thought I would pass along the info in case anyone is interested. Personally, I think one called Why your meds don't work would be good, but hey, maybe it will be informative

Bowel Disease:

Why Should I Take My Medications?

DATE: Thursday, March 6, 2008

TIME: 1:00 PM to 2:15 PM ET

SPEAKER:

Sunanda V. Kane, MD, MSPH

Associate Professor of Medicine

Mayo Clinic College of Medicine

Rochester, Minnesota

This FREE educational teleconference will address effective IBD treatment planning and answer important questions about medications and IBD.

Which medical therapies are used to treat IBD?

What are important goals of treatment?

Why is it important to take medications as prescribed?

Which tools can help me take my medication on time, every time?

It didn't paste too well but if you go to ccfa.org you can register.

Hi Lar,

I received the same e-mail. I have never sat in on a teleconference before. How does that work?
